boîte pour hot dogs à emporter
Explanation:
je laisserais tomber "concession" qui vient de "concession stand", ou stand à hot dogs

littéralement : boîtes dans lesquelles on met les hit dogs à emporter au stand à hot dogs

" Boîte à hot dog"

barquettes façon boîte à pop corn rétro


Explanation:
c'est un peu long, mais comme il s'agit de présenter les hot dogs de manière un peu festive / concession fait référence aux vendeurs de nourriture à emporter dans les fêtes foraines ou les cinémas (d'où le pop corn) / en général ce sont des emballages à rayures bicolores (rouge et blanc par exemple) / à défaut des barquettes colorées s'il faut faire court

Example sentence(s):
  • Sur fond de rayures rouges et blanches façon boite à pop-corn rétro
